Cameron Cuffy's place in the West Indies team for the forthcoming International Cricket Council's Champions Trophy isn't altogether certain.

In light of concerns over his fitness, chief selector Sir Vivian Richards confirmed yesterday that following an assessment by the selection panel over the next few days, a final determination will be made.

A West Indies Cricket Board release later in the day, which outlined details of an agreement reached with the West Indies Players Association, mentioned that the team "will proceed to Sri Lanka on September 5 barring injuries".

After a recent knee operation, the gangling Vincentian fast bowler made an unimpressive return to competitive cricket by playing in the last two preliminary matches of the Red Stripe Bowl.

He hardly looked the part and often struggled when bowling and fielding.

Cuffy is usually impeccable in line and length at regional level, but he went for 56 runs from his 10 overs on his first appearnce in the Bowl against Barbados a week ago.
